Search Reactor is being retired!

Search Reactor 2 is now available for beta testers

Tired of your customers getting irrelevant search results? Even worse, no search results for a product they know you sell? We are too! With the Search Reactor advanced search application, your customers will get more relevant search results, leading them to the products they are looking for, faster. Misspellings? No problem. Don't know the exact name of a product? Our search app will offer your customer its best guess based on the products in your database.

So how does it all work? Most search engines find results based on what is contained in the search query. For example, if a customer searches for "tshirt" or mistypes "tshrt" but your shop spells the term "t-shirt," no results will be found because the characters don't match precisely.

Conversely, Search Reactor is inherently intuitive. It combines accuracy and relevance into a listing of best matches for your users. Unlike other search engines, typing in more information to Search Reactor actually gives better results. So even if your customer is looking for "t-shirt" but types "tee shirt," both will be displayed. And it's optimized for speed so your customers won't be left waiting.

It is important to note that the goal of Search Reactor is not to exclude products from the results list, rather to list the highest relevances first; it sorts results based on relevance so your customer is highly likely to find exactly what they're searching for, quickly and easily. Even better, it is highly unlikely that the dreaded "no results found" will ever occur with this search appication.

An added benefit of Search Reactor is the ability for shop owners to view real-time reports that show your users' most popular search terms today, this month and forever. Additionally, this application comes with a template editor, which allows you to fully customize the look of your search results, as well as integrate with your existing theme.

Search Reactor reviews

Installed the app, it does not work for some reason. Contacted support twice and still no answer after 48rs. Willl be uninstalling and trying another app. I have installed several apps in my theme and have excellet support with them responding and fixing issues within 24hrs. Very dissapointed.

Basically this app creates its own result page (with options to custom format the code for the search results template), and the results

I feel the description of the app is a little long-winded, so to put it in short, if you have products that may be searched multiple ways by customers, even though you are consistent on how your create your titles, this search will allow the customer to find them.

So if you (the seller) use the term "40hp" in your titles without the space and some potential customer searches "40 hp" normal shopify search will not generate any results. This app solves that problem and also is great for partial matches as well, and will even match correct results if the customer puts in too much or too little information (like adding a prefix to a part number or forgetting a suffix)

The results page may have more results than you would expect, but it's ranked in order from most relevant to least relevant. Customers can actually find relevant products now by searching and not be stopped dead in their tracks by shopify's extremely limited default search algorithm.

The five stars is for the results it delivers, it's a great app which could benefit from some further improvements, such as customise the results page (to include price, CTA button, number of results shown). The developer is responsive such as recently when something in Shopify fell over (again) blocking the app from working and he pulled the plug so at least some results were showing, very responsive & thanks.

It does also make you wonder why you pay Shopify all this money a month to have to spend extra on functionality that they really should be developing themselves.

Search Reactor saved the day. It really works. We have over 1300 products in our shop most of which had minimal tags and yielded poor search results. Not knowing where to turn, search reactor saved the day. If you want real results that make customers happy, install search reactor today.
